Letra da Música: Closer To An Animal – Sonata Arctica MP3
I am a man
You fell down
From that apple tree
The other day with me
We have already forgotten
We one day crawled up
From the sea

Imagine now
If we one day
Could bouild a flying contraption
And see the world
What if we could somehow
Store knowlegde in a cloud
Draw a smiley face on the moon
Find the meang of life

Riding the crest
Of our time
With bravado
Soon complete
Will we see a new one
Rise behind us
A new chance
A new world
Our wave

It’s about to break
And we’re about to dive
In the void
It echoes our fall
Our paean to avarice

I think i’m closer
To an animal
Every day till I fall

Can you believe
We have all those eyes
High in the sky and we can now
See the world
One thing truly makes me blind
The wisdom of hindsight
The eye
In my own hand

Riding the crest
Of our time
With bravado
Soon complete
Will we see a new one
Rise behind us
A new chance
A new world

I think we’re closer
To an animal
Every day till we fall

If you want it all
You can have it all
But greed raises oceans too
When the glacier of
Our broken dreams
Melts in your
Champagne glass
Someone knocks
On yout door
Four times

Sand in yout hour glass
Every day is a day
Falling, finding rightful place

If you want it all
You can have it all
But greed raises oceans too
When the glacier of
Your broken dreams
Melts in your
Champagne glass
Do we need it all
We can have it all
Our greed will raises oceans soon
When the glacier of
Our human dream
Gone with the
Champagne glass
In the sea

I am a man
In the grand scheme of things
Only minutes have passed
Since I crawled up from the sea
But already
I’ve built a flying contraption
And seen the world
I’ve drawn a smiley face on the moon
And stored knowlegde in a cloud
What a wonderful gift our mind is

But why am I using it
To destroy
This beautiful planet?
My only home
If it define me
If it makes me a human
I need to get closer to my inner animal
